Frequently Asked Questions

Clear medical guidance for online menopause consultations in Australia.

Yes. If you are established on a stable Menopause Hormone Therapy regime (transdermal oestrogen patches/gels, oral progestogens, or combination therapies) and up to date with routine health screenings, an Australian GP can issue repeat eScripts sent directly to your phone via SMS.

In women aged over 45 presenting with classic symptoms and cycle changes, perimenopause is primarily a clinical diagnosis and hormone blood tests (like FSH or oestradiol) are usually not required because levels fluctuate wildly day to day. Blood tests may be ordered to rule out alternative causes (e.g. thyroid dysfunction, iron deficiency, or vitamin D deficiency) or in younger women suspected of early menopause.

Your GP can discuss evidence-based non-hormonal prescription treatments (such as specific SSRIs/SNRIs, gabapentinoids, or NK3 receptor antagonists) along with lifestyle interventions to effectively manage hot flushes, night sweats, and mood changes.

Yes. Severe hot flushes, sleep deprivation, migraines, or joint pain during the perimenopause transition can significantly impair your ability to work. Following clinical evaluation, an AHPRA-registered GP can issue an official medical certificate under the Fair Work Act 2009.
